Broads’ leisure experience

The Waterside Rollesby is nestled among the stunning surroundings of Rollesby Broad, a triple rated site of special scientific interest, part of Britain’s Magical Waterland. The Waterside is located just 15 miles from Norwich and 7 miles from Great Yarmouth on the main A149 Stalham to Yarmouth Road. We are open 7 days a week, year-round with free admission and parking. The Waterside café and tearooms serves a tempting range of homemade cakes and scones, pastries, ice-creams, lunches and traditional afternoon teas. Produce is sourced locally and we use only the freshest ingredients. We believe one of our greatest assets is our magnificent setting right on the Broad where you can enjoy the tranquil views with alfresco dining from our stunning outdoor terrace. You may even spot the resident family of herons. Our fabulous dining experience is complimented by a range of fun things to see and do. Visitors can enjoy an informative tour on a beautiful Edwardian launch or explore the broad in our range of hire boats. Binoculars are available for hire to help with spotting the incredible range of wildlife. Fishing is available in season and there’s a children’s play area with putting.
